development documentation but this news group presented enough clues to get
me started with hooks. It's reasonably straightforward although I can't
guarantee these tips are the correct way. I've just spent a few hours
compiling the information I present below so if I save you the few hours,
it's worth posting. If you're a developer, further customisation should be
simple.
In VS2005 or similar, create a new Class Library Project called,
"TestHookProject"
Under Project Properties -> Compile Options, tick "Register for COM interop"
Add a COM reference to "Store Operations Business Rules" (QSRules.dll).
Note this reference is used to assist in locating properties and methods
using early binding and should be removed and replaced with late binding
before release.
Add a .Net reference to System.Windows.Forms for the messagebox class
Rename Class1 to TestHook and add the following simple test code
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Class TestHook
Public Function Process(ByVal Session As Object) As Boolean
'Used during development and removed for release
Dim TempSession As QSRules.SessionClass
Try
MessageBox.Show("Transaction Initialised")
Exit Function
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Function
End Class
You can use the TempSession object for intellisense during development or
the Object Browser.
Build your project.
Modify the RMS registry keys to use your hook.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Retail Management System\Store
Operations\Hooks
Increase the Count Key by 1
In The "Count-1" subkey eg. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Retail
Management System\Store Operations\Hooks\000
Caption = Transaction Initialised Hook
Description = Test Hook
HookType = 6
ObjectName = TestHookProject.TestHook
Parameter = 1
Restart POS and you should get the messagebox whenever you create a new
transaction.
Available hook types.
0 PostTransaction
1 PrintReceipt
2 TenderBegin
3 ExportAccounting
4 AddItem
5 RefreshDisplay
6 InitializeTransaction
7 StartPOS
8 QuitPOS
9 SavePurchaseOrder
10 SaveSupplier
11 SaveCustomer
12 StartManager
13 QuitManager
14 SaveItem
15 TenderEnd
Hope this helps but I'll also suggest you seek help and support from your
Partner as RMS is a very different beast to every other Microsoft product I
know. I'm quite surprised at the secrecy and lack of documentation or text
books for us non-Partners.
Feel free to email me a copy of the "Customization Guide" or "Secret Book"
I've heard about.

I have documentation:
QSBridge FireEvent Commands – 6.15.00 (35 Page)
it interests to you, I need an example hook in VB6
please send email: rrodri...@gmail.com
Mick Hardy
I would appreciate a copy of any documentation you have.
Hooks in VB6 are even easier than Dot Net because you don't have the cross
platform problems.
Create a new ActiveX DLL Project
Add the following code to Class1
Option Explicit
Public Function Process(ByVal Session As Object) As Boolean
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
MsgBox "Transaction Initialised!"
Process = True
Exit Function
ErrHandler:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Function
Compile the project and leave it running in the VB6 Environment
Add the following registry keys and increase the Count
Caption = Initialize Transaction Hook
Description = Testing VB6
HookType = 6
ObjectName = Project1.Class1
Parameter = 1
Restart POS and it should all work. You will have to ALT Tab to the VB6
Environment to display the message box. Once you've finished developing,
compile the project and deploy your DLL.
I strongly recommend ditching VB6 and jumping on the Dot Net band wagon.
You'll never look back. I was reluctant to change but the code I just wrote
is the first VB6 code in many years.
Have Fun.

I tried the example and it worked , now I would like to try to develope some
thing to handle serial numbers in transfering items .
Can you please send it to me .?

keeping it under wraps due to the amount of work and number of exams they
need to pass to get the rating. I have no idea why Microsoft have made
development for RMS so exclusive. It is very unlike Microsoft who have been
leaders with SDKs from the very beginning. I have a VS2005 Team Developer
with MSDN Premium subscription but I'm not allowed to develop for my fully
licensed copy of RMS. It sucks.

Retail Management, Store Operations, Customization, ArticleID 869720. I'm
not sure if this is the elusive Customization Guide as it is pretty brief but
it has a number of documents available for download as well. It is labelled
Partners Only but is available to Customers. It has good info on Hooks and
COM components.
